Audia Flight

Audia Flight is based in Civitavecchia, in the middle of Italy, 70Km to Rome, near the sea. Audia Flight was founded in 1996 by Massimiliano Marzi and Andrea Nardini. Both men have backgrounds in the professional electronics industry, and their goal was to design and build components that neither altered the audio signal nor slowed its transmission. The company has grown to be one of the leading high-end hifi manufacturers in Italy."

Audio Research

Audio Research prides itself on manufacturing only those products which will provide genuine enjoyment for as long as the customer cares to own them. In company practice, this means that Audio Research technicians can still repair, refurbish and restore to original performance standards virtually any product ever manufactured during the company’s 40-year history.

Indeed, 40-year-old Audio Research designs continue to provide exceptional musical enjoyment daily in music systems around the world. These products are workhorses, not museum pieces.

Much more than a mere carriage-trade brand name, the Audio Research marque has come to represent stellar performance and lasting value for music lovers and audio enthusiasts everywhere.

Audio Research Phono Stages.

Audio Research products are all made by hand in our Plymouth, Minnesota facility. Connections are hand-soldered, not press-fit nor wave-soldered. All metalwork, boards, transformers and major parts are American-made and sourced locally. We take a great deal of pride in our workmanship, and so will you. You'll certainly hear the difference.

Basis Audio

Designer A.J. Conti’s mission for the Basis Inspiration was clear from the beginning: to design a turntable system that performs as closely as possible to the unequalled Basis Work of Art at a more accessible cost.

Listening to the Work of Art is a revelatory audio experience. Music lovers comment that listening becomes a musical event more than listening session. No other turntable/tonearm combination convinces the listener in this way. It was imperative that the Inspiration display a meaningful degree of this “event feel”.

Bellari

At Bellari we take tube based equipment very seriously. No 48V plate voltages here. We have removed the high cost of point to point wiring and inefficient construction techniques and left the pure analog musical sound that class "A" tubes can offer. Bellari is available to everyone, not just the moneyed few.

Bellari is one of those rare values that comes from a perfect blend of function and design. In only seven years Bellari has become a major force in digital recording front ends and for performing musicians. We love our craft and hope music professionals world wide will find joy in using Bellari equipment.

The original Phantom and upgraded Phantom II tonearms have enjoyed an enviable record of performance, build quality and user satisfaction. When we set about to improve on what was already a high standard, we knew any changes must be significant and provide even more insight into the subtle layers of musical detail.

Herron

Correct presentation in time is the key element to transparency. We experience this every day in our listening to the un-amplified world around us.

Transparency is so much more than just low distortion. It is that rare and special ability of an exceptional piece of audio equipment to get out of the way of the performance and allow the listener to really hear the expression, emotion, and subtlety of each individual performer.

The touch and feel of each instrument becomes profoundly clear - the foundation and the soul of the performance. There should be no equipment bias as to the type of music be it contemporary, jazz, rock, classical, and other forms of musical expression. Herron correctly presents to the listener music as performed and recorded!

KISEKI

Project Audio

Heinz Lichtenegger, one of Austria's leading distributors of high-end audio brands, founded PRO-JECT AUDIO SYSTEMS in early 1990. As an audiophile and music lover, Heinz 's interest in turntables and analog playback turned into a passion to create turntables, tonearms and analog accessories that were reasonably priced yet that were uncompromised both mechanically and sonically. This passion is what led him and his like-minded colleagues to launch a new business venture named PRO-JECT AUDIO SYSTEMS.

Rega Research Limited

Rega’s philosophy is to make high quality products at sensible prices, as a means of reproducing music as faithfully as possible.

We are committed to the design and development of new and existing products, both in hi-fi and other areas, that will perpetuate Rega’s values of quality and value for money.

By 1983 the time had come for Rega to design and build its own tonearm and so the world famous RB300 (Rega Britain) was born. The high pressure die-cast silicon alloy tube alone took two years to develop alongside the UK's largest die-cast company. The work and our casting subsequently won us an "international casting award" from America for what is still considered today to be a technically impossible casting.
